The shallow waters lopped upon the rocks The shadows moved as the moon shone down I saw your features as plain as the day I heard your voice in sound of the waves
The mighty tides breathe in and out again I heard the surf crashing closer And in that moment you were there by my side As if the years had never flown past
That was a long time ago I don't want to dwell in the past That was a long time ago Now I must escape from your ghost
The minutes pass, the illusion still holds My fingers running down my spine And in the east I see the first of dawn And with the light I feel you slip away
